Johnny Gaudgreau’s wife, Meredith Gaudreau, has broken her silence following her devastating loss.
Gaudreau, a star winger for the Columbus Blue Jackets, lost his life under tragic circumstances this week. The 31-year-old was killed along with his brother, Matthew Gaudreau, while they were riding their bikes in the Oldsman Township in New Jersey on Thursday evening.
The brothers were struck by a drunk driver, who remained at the scene of the crash and has since been charged with two counts of death by auto.
Gaudreau’s family made a statement following the shocking incident on Friday. His wife has also shared a post of her own, taking to Instagram to upload several photos from their life together.
“Thank you for the best years of my life. Despite losing you, I am still the luckiest girl in the world to have been yours,” she wrote. “I love you so so much. You were perfect. Some days it felt too good to be true. I love every single thing about you. You are my forever and I can’t wait to be with you again. I love you so much forever and ever.”
